That'll work with any cache-busting you need to do. I use it in testing, to
un-cache the swf file itself, when viewed on server. Ie: send rand var in
url and if it's present, pass it in to swf call (swfobject + php, here):

var so = new SWFObject( "ProductBuilder.swf?rand=<?=$rand?>",
"product_builder", "100%", "100%", "9", "#FFFFFF");

Saves me the 'pain' of going through some menu to clear browser's cache, not
to mention losing your browser's cache, in order to update one element!
